In today’s digital age, cyberattacks leading to data breaches occur from time to time. To assist organisations in handling data breaches properly, the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) recently published a new “Guidance on Data Breach Handling and Data Breach Notifications” and reinforces it by issuing a pamphlet on the Guidance (Pamphlet) today. The Pamphlet uses infographics to present a summary of the important contents of the Guidance in order to assist organisations in responding to data breaches by preparing for both the “BEFORE” and “AFTER” scenarios – with recommendations on formulating a personal data breach response plan as a contingency plan and a step-by-step approach to contain damage and harm after the occurrence of a breach.
